Last night was a masterclass in showbiz! 🏆 @michaelholmes6045 was brilliant in “The Judy Show” to say the very least. Season is HERE and I highly recommend getting tickets to this show. My face still hurts from laughing so hard this morning! 😂😂😂 #thejudyshow #thepurpleroom #palmsprings #supperclub #dinnerandashow

🪐🔮I think the Cosmos and the Spirits of the 27 Club were working their magic last night, because the entire evening was unlike anything I have ever experienced. ✨

Thank you. 🙏🏻

Taking last place in a pageant takes a lot of work and there's no way I could have done it all by myself!
Here's a gigantic Thank You to some key people who had a generously voluntary hand in my BEST IN DRAG SHOW 2026 presentation. First, thank you, ROBIN CHARTIER (and Holly-Lynn!!) for taking my (Challenging?) designs and bringing them to life with your additional ideas and special touch! I appreciate all of your hard work over the last few months and am grateful there was a kitty cat to help you! Thank you to JAMES FRIETAS for your masterful beautification of my mug with your enchanted make-up work and help with wigs and dressing during the show! JOHN FREY, director of BIDS 2026, for steering me with a firm hand, without threatening my sense of creativity and stoopid-ness. Thank you, MATT ZARLEY and DUDLEY BEENE for your help with music and video elements which I could not have done myself. Gracias to all the dancers, but especially DAVID CONTERAS and ALEX DAVILA , who assisted me on stage with my kookiness and special Caulk Wrangling. Special mention of JOHN COULTER who shared ideas, advice and painting skills. Thank you to PATRICK RUSH, OSCAR QUINTERO and TODD SHERRY for support and suggestions to improve my show. A "I'm not worthy" to LUIS CAMACHO for his patience and guidance where my lack of skill in "step, touch" is concerned. Muchas Gacias to ANIL PATEL, JEFF SUMNER, BRIAN SHARP & NINA BOONE, JIMMY CUOMO and DANI KELLY for their behind the scenes help and guidance. Bow down to JOHN PASCHAL for making me as pretty as he could with his fancy camera work. Big appreciation for everyone else at APLA HEALTH and all the volunteers. TREMENDOUS HONORS to my fellow contestants, who always had kind and supportive words and helped where they could. They created an atmosphere that felt like we were focusing more on putting on a great show, than competing against each other. Finally, THANK YOU to my friends who came specifically to see and support me and friends who came just to enjoy a fun night! In general, thank you to everyone who came out and helped us raise over $465,000 in badly needed funds!!

I can’t believe what’s happening. ✨

There is something truly magical happening at each of these shows with Billy L’Amour & The Love Notes at Spirit Animal. And so much of that magic comes from the dynamic, generous, and completely up for anything crowds who join us for these soirées.

🙏🏻I am overflowing with gratitude.

Getting to make music, take risks, laugh, play and create something new with these incredible musicians is an absolute gift. Every show seems to take on a life of its own, and I’m so excited to keep creating and experimenting with them.

To everyone who has joined us, cheered us on and jumped into the madness with us, THANK YOU. ❤️

We’re just getting started.

Toujours L’Amour! 💋✨
